    Need a resonator for a 318is..suggestions????

    I have a magnaflow muffler and was going to just do a resonator delete. I am afraid that it will sound way too ricer-ish. Any suggestions on a resonator that I could team up with my magnaflow muffler?

    I need the same thing for the same car with a magnaflow as well, so advice would be appreciated. ;)

      umm, well. You do have a 4 cyl, but a bigger size engine then most civics you hear farting around. You could weld in a glass pack and it will deepen the sound up a little more too.
      its always going to sound better then a 1.6l honda. However it will still sound like a 4 cylinder.

        i just did 2 2" smooth bore cherrybombs for my cat delete, with a strobe? or something like that cat back. it made it quieter, but it is really buzzy now and i don't like it at all!! i am looking at an magnaflow #11385. it's 2 1/4" dual in and dual out "aero chamber", which should sound good as a resonator with out making a lot of restriction since it is pretty much a straight through muffler....oh yea just for the record it is on a 91 325i

              magnaflow will make it sound like a ricer for sure the only muffler i have seen on a 318is that sound semi decent is a 3 chamber flowmaster....
